Southwest Florida Merry Maids Franchise Expands Service Area

“We are thrilled to take over operations of Merry Maids in Fort Myers and Cape Coral. Our goal is to revitalize the Merry Maids brand in these areas by maintaining the high standards of quality and service that we’re known for. We’re dedicated to providing our clients with exceptional cleaning services and creating a positive impact on the communities we serve.”

Mark and Lindsay Willard embarked on their Merry Maids journey in May 2014, initially serving the Naples area. With a passion for entrepreneurship and a commitment to providing unparalleled customer service, the Willards quickly established themselves as leaders in the cleaning industry.

In recent months, the Willards expanded their footprint by acquiring the territories of Fort Myers and Cape Coral, marking a significant milestone in their entrepreneurial journey. With this expansion, they now oversee two office locations and one satellite office, positioning themselves as a leading Merry Maids authority in Southwest Florida.

One of the hallmarks of the husband-and-wife duo’s approach to franchise ownership is their commitment to fostering a family atmosphere. They understand the importance of employee retention and strive to create a supportive and inclusive workplace. Celebrating birthdays, anniversaries, and hosting contests are just a few examples of how they ensure employees feel valued and part of a close-knit team. As part of their commitment to employee retention, every member is well compensated for their hard work and dedication to the business.

“Merry Maids is proud to have Mark and Lindsay Willard as franchisees, and their expansion into Fort Myers and Cape Coral are a testament to their commitment to the brand's values and the communities they serve,” said Jean Grossman, president of Merry Maids.
